- On April 16, 2015, the cast of Hamilton the Musical performed a special tribute to "A Chorus Line", the groundbreaking musical that premiered on the same stage 40 years prior.
"Get in your line, you're gonna miss the line!" -Lin Dad
Lin-Manuel Mirandad
One day 40 years from now, the same shall be done for Hamilton

Justin Le

His story
And all
What he did afta the duel
It will still be on Broadway pobably...
Living for Jonathan Groff's facial expressions when Betsy was singing from 3:22-3:52.
he is a gem
I LOVE that the Hamilton ensemble got solos- I can't wait to see where they all end up next, so much passion and love.. Ariana, Sasha, Carleigh, Ephraim, Jon, Seth, Thayne, Betsy.. Couldn't take my eyes off them during the show, was WONDERFUL to see them have a moment to themselves. :D
+Jennifer Austin, you should've seen Thayne Jasperson starring it Footloose at Tuachan. He was very good :)
MrChannelReview he was in HSM
Jennifer Austin Ariana is going to be Anita in the WSS remake this year!
Ariana is about to get an Oscar nomination
Ariana won the ducking Oscar!
6:26 Lin iacted like such a dad
Dad-Manuel Miranda
Lin-Daduel Miranda
Lin-Manuel Mirandad
(I'm almost as bad at Lin-related puns as Daveed)
Mirandad is the best one
Mari Makos Old man Miranda?
Lin Manuel Mirandad is great lmao
Linmonade
wow 2055 has a lot of pressure on it to produce a groundbreaking Musical
+ArtemisScribe And I will be wearing my Burr T-Shirt,lol
Truly
*Puts on Hamilmerch that I will probably have by then, puts on dinglasses, and my songbook*
On it
it makes me so sad that I will never be able to see this show with the original cast ever in my life :(
I saw it way back in 2015 it was so amazing
Zixzin Dude, NOBODY asked. Shame on you.
Danny garza same 😭
thats why youtube exists
I might have bad taste, but I prefer the London cast and the Philip Tour cast over the OBC.
Love that you get to hear the ensemble sing here, not the leads who you hear all the time.
The musical is Chorus Line 😂
@@hollylauver4778 I think they mean the ensemble from Hamilton. They didn't give the main lines of the Chorus Line song to the leads of Hamilton.
Such a wonderful, appropriate choice!
I love how phillipa is smiling the whole time❤️☺️😁
Ikr 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
"Your line, your line, you're gonna miss your line" dad Lin is the best Lin lol
I'm not crying there's just 40 years of beautiful art in my eye.
Me: *sees this video*
Me: *hasn't actually heard of A Chorus Line*
Me: *googles it and reads its wikipedia page*
Me: *comes back to watch this and cries*
@ツMyUsernameIsThis A Chorus Line is a musical that follows multiple dancers auditioning to be in a chorus line. This was the first time a musical focused on the ensemble actors of a show. In the show, this song is performed after one of the characters is injured, ending their career. The rest of the dancers are asked I believe something akin to, “What if tomorrow you never danced again?” Or, “What if you were never able to dance again? How would you feel?” As this song says, they wouldn’t regret anything. The talent they had for dance was only temporary. They would make the most of it while they could.
I'll just add that A Chorus Line includes a lot about "identity" - at the start of the musical, you'll see a group of dancers, usually horribly (and deliberately, which is hard!) out of sync, dressed differently, all coming from different backgrounds. As the story progresses, and many are given "thank you" - code for "get lost", the ensemble is reduced to a core group and the individuality is gradually molded into ... well, the closing number is "One". "One singular sensation, every little step she takes. One thrilling combination, every move that she makes..." And I absolutely agree that it connects beautifully with Hamilton. But for anyone who's been in any theatrical production you'll appreciate the special moments that happen during endless rehearsals and finally when you have an audience. I think Amaya puts it pretty well (I adjusted the voice a bit), "make the most of it while you can!" (Not a bad life lesson.) "5, 6, 7, 8..." [which is "A Chorus Line" code for "Let's do it again!"]
@@dwmwat Thank you. Your reply is very eloquent as well. I’ve been in a few theatrical productions, and I love that feeling of connecting with my cast during the rehearsal process and when we get to show our hard work to an audience. It’s just magical.
groff's expressions. aaahhhh my heart can't just can't
thAYNES SMILE WHEN CARLEIGH IS SINGING
this made me cry because my mums favourite musical when she was my age was A Chorus Line (she watched the cassette tape every Saturday with her sister) and now my favourite musical is Hamilton and OH GOD IM SOBBING
THIS IS SO CUTE OMG 😭😭
make sure your kid gets into a nice ass musical :)
Stop it now your making me cry 😢 😭 🤧. My mom also loved a chorus line and did a college performance of it. I used to play piano for her to help her practice. We played what I did for love at her funeral 5 years ago. God I can't stop crying. Thanks for sharing.
I want someone to look at me the way Thayne looks at Carleigh. Awe that was adorable.
Katie Gooding same
allisonisnotcool he looks so proud
i'm not crying. you're crying.
Phillipa is like a proud mother in this she’s always smiling so big at whoever is singing
Wow, all of that talent on one stage
6:24 Lin being such a Dad😂🥺 “your line, go get in your line, or you’re gonna miss your line”
I'm going to tell a story I'll be telling as an old lady.
In the early 90s, b'way was dying. It certainly wasn't a huge spectacular like it is now
To help sales, Broadway had these incredible deals. Children's tickets were half price or free. On top of that, MTA also offered free or reduced fares for children.
Suddenly taking a family of 5 to The City (a mere 45 min train ride) to see a show was still a splurge, but affordable.
We didn't really go on vacation as a kid, but I did see a bunch of shows.
They were literally giving tickets away. Buy one get one. Anything to fill the seats.
My first show was Les Miserables. My older sister's was a chorus line and it seriously delights me to think of a 6 year old watching Hamilton, with so much stuff going over their head. And then to hear it again years later and be like, damn. My parents let me watch this!?
I'm so freaking glad Broadway survived. Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now
(But not over there, just focus on b'way 🤣)
Thank you for sharing this ❤
I love that the ensemble got to shine in this
I was in a production of A Chorus Line many years ago (Al). There was something really special about this show. The rawness and simplicity of it. No fancy sets. I love Hamilton with a passion and this was such a fantastic homage to this great show.
I saw it in London a few years ago and it is by far the greatest musical I’ve ever seen.
The way he said Pricilla Lopez made my heart happy
I love that moment when they are all just standing on stage clapping for each other it's so cute this ugh
Groff is staring at everyone with pure pride it’s honestly adorable
Hoping to see the original cast of Hamilton after 40yrs... this was in 2015.. it is now 2021. So, 34 more yrs to wait. 😉
So many people both in our broadway audiences, and yes, even on stage, do not know all those shoulders they have been standing on. 40 years is the blink of an eye. a generation earlier, Broadway saw new stars like Ethel Merman, Alfred Drake, Gertrude lawerence, Robert Preston, and Carol Channing. Its nice to see this moment.
Love that they showcased the 'chorus line' of the Hamilton cast. Beautiful touch.
That was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. #uglycrying
Thank you.
Did anyone here the "woah, woah woah ohh" from My Shot at 3:09?
Woah- yeah!!!!
a. tg Glad someone else’s ears caught that 😊
Yep. Every time I watch it 😃
OMG YEAH
Love the fact they let the ensemble players shine. So much talent there. Somebody should make a musical about their stories.
Man, the look of Phillipa Soo make me so emotional
3:05
This was adorable and what a fantastic way to honor musical theater's history. Thanks for sharing
The whole cast sound AMAZING together🥰
WHEN THEY SAID KELLY BISHOP MY HEART LEAPED! ITS EMILY GILMORE!
from Left to Right: Ephraim, Chris, Renee, Seth, Jon, Sasha, Sydney, Phillipa, Daveed, Lin, Betsy, Leslie, Groff, Oak, Ariana, Jasmine, Anthony, Carleigh, Thayne and Javier (pops in at 3:52)
Man. I wanna see a chorus line starring that chorus line. That was gave me goosebumps. Repeatedly.
I know this is 40 years ago, at the time.. I saw A Chorus Line! it was my first "big girl" show, I think I was 13. Made my 18 year old son go see Hamilton with me and yes tears to see the ensemble singing. Amazing Just found this video BTW, LOL
Okay can we talk about Leslies face when Betsy was singing. LoL
3:09 woah woah woah-ooohh :)
I can't name any other show that made the fans love the ensemble (as individuals) as much as the principals :') so this A Chorus Line celebration felt quite on point
also 2:58 Lacamoire I see what you did there xD
i heard that too it was so sneaky lol

YEP
I'M SO HAPPY I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON TO NOTICE IT
smndat I JUST LISTENED TO IT CLOSELY TO HEAR WHAT IT WAS OMAHGAWD HES A GENIUS AND IT WAS SO CUTE AND ALMOST UNNOTICABLE TOOOOOO WOOOWWWW
This video never gets old. Such a beautiful moment ❤️
Before Hamilton The Musical:
Person- Hey, do you know who Alexander Hamilton is?
Other Person- Excuse me? Who's that, is it a Deli Brand?
Person- What?!? No! He's a- oh never mind I don't know who he is either.
After The Musical Hamilton:
Person- Hey do you know who Alexander Hamilton is?
Other Person- HECK YAH!!! HE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like if you agree 👍

The 40th tribute for hamilton will be happening before i get to see it
You'll get to see it sooner than you think. Disney DVD of play with original cast coming out in October 2020.
How fantastic. The Chorus Line is one of my favourite muscials. Thank you to the cast of The Chorus Line and Hamilton...Well Done XX
Daveed Diggs' arm around Emily Bishop is EVERYTHING!
It's KELLY Bishop, but yes!! I died!!
Whoops. Confused her character anther actual person while typing. Awkward. Gilmore Girls Seasons on the brain
Haha I feel you Gilmore Girls is always on my brain!! This combo is perfection! I'm feeling there will for sure be a ref to it in season's with ASP being such a broadway nut haha
At the beginning when they held up pictures of themselves, I wanted LMM to hold up the picture where he has that double chin
Debbie Downer!
Or the lip bit.
Still a wonderful, heartfelt performance.
Are we just gonna ignore Phillipa Soo at
3:12

Lol I love LMM (Ln-Manuel Miranda) at 6:27
+Samantha Quillen He acted like such a dad, haha i love it!
I love him so much. Such a cutie. 💜
this is still one of my favorite videos of all time
I love how Kelly Bishop, when they’re forming the line, hits her poster pose (left hand on hip). Love her.
Pippa was crying for a bit!!! Pippa is the best person I even wanted to cry!😭😭😭😭😍😍🥰
I love musical theater. Now I think I need to watch A Chorus Line more closely.
So. Many. Goosebumps! Gorgeous!!
Wow, what a blast! To see the original cast of A Chorus Line come back to the very stage where it all began at the Public Theater is giving me goosebumps! That show will always be special to me.
Chorus line was and still is the most creative, beautifully done and wonderful musical, I love the director, choreographer and cast members who gave their all to make this musical so enjoyable and very memorable, and to The cast of Hamilton and Lin - manuel mirandad.... my hat goes off to all of you,
When thayne started singing every one look at him as if he weren’t invited XD
Jonathan Groff just jammin in the back 😂
What a beautiful performance. Lin Manuel remains a national treasure.
I'm doing a chorus line in school right now and I'm so happy they did this!
I had tears in my eyes watching this. Beautiful
Love watching Jonathan during Betsy's solo
How do I always forget that Kelly Bishop aka Emily Gilmore was in this cast?? This warmed all the cockles of my heart.
May every person find something they are willing to commit their lives to for the sake of love.
I'M NOT CRYING YOUR CRYING
My crying what
I love this so much 😭😍🎭🎶
If you haven’t seen it, I recommend the documentary Every Little Step about the casting of the ACL revival in 2007! So many of them have since become famous!
Lin is so fking adorable!
I saw this before I watched ACL, then I watched ACL and now I'm watching this again and am SOBBING
Gosh I'm crying! This is so beautiful
Well that was just amazing.
I had a cute overload at the end of this
I lost count of how many time I got hoosebumps
This is so beautiful.
I just want to hug everyone
I cannot love this enough!!!
It made me cry even though I've never heard A Chorus Line (and don't actually know anything about this musical except for the title)
Hey😎, What An Honor That's My Birthday 🎉
I'm not crying, your crying 😭
That was amazing!
In tears
I'm not crying!! I swear! 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Why was Jonathan Groff in a company costume, he played the KING!

Lisa Miller Clinton and Hamilton hater
